RE: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] Council report

["Aikman-Scalese, Anne" <AAikman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Angie. This information was certainly in an earlier draft. In fact, it 
was part of the change I suggested because I didn't see the language about 
"only for a significant cause".  Wolf-Ulrich and Marika, was the document sent 
out for consensus somehow different from the one that we had all previously 
been working on?

Hi All,

For the Voting Thresholds for Delaying a PDP, I see no content in the 
presentation.

From Marika, the current thresholds for terminating and initiating a PDP are as 
follows:

  *   Terminate a PDP: Once initiated, and prior to the publication of a Final 
Report, the GNSO Council may terminate a PDP only for significant cause, upon a 
motion that passes with a GNSO Supermajority Vote in favor of termination.
  *   Initiate a Policy Development Process ("PDP") Within Scope (as described 
in Annex A<http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#AnnexA>): requires 
an affirmative vote of more than one-third (1/3) of each House or more than 
two-thirds (2/3) of one House.

A staff recommendation has been made but has not yet gained consensus in the 
group.

Best regards,

Angie
